These sterile 4x4 inch sponges are crafted from 6-ply 100% cotton, offering superior softness and absorbency.

Each pack contains 50 individually wrapped sponges, ensuring sterility until use. Whether you are a patient, caregiver, or healthcare professional, these sponges provide reliable protection and moisture management.

Key Features and Benefits

• Sterile and Safe: Each sponge is individually sterilized to maintain a clean environment, reducing the risk of infection at the insertion site.
• 6-Ply Cotton Construction: The multi-layer design offers maximum absorbency to wick away exudate and keep the skin dry, promoting healing.
• Split Design: A pre-cut slit allows the sponge to be positioned securely around tubes and lines without bunching or shifting, providing comfort and stability.
• Versatile Use: Ideal for drain sites, central lines, peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC lines), dialysis catheters, and more.
• Convenient Pack Size: 50 sponges per pack ensure you have an adequate supply for regular changes, as recommended by healthcare providers.

How to Use

1. Wash your hands thoroughly before handling the sponge. 2. Open the sterile packaging carefully, avoiding contact with the sponge’s inner surface. 3. Position the sponge so that the tube or catheter passes through the slit. 4. Gently place the sponge around the insertion site, ensuring it lies flat against the skin. 5. Secure with medical tape or a secondary dressing as directed by your healthcare provider. 6. Change the sponge as often as recommended, typically once daily or whenever soiled.

Who It Is For

They are suitable for post-surgical drain sites, tracheostomy care, feeding tube maintenance, and IV line protection.
